The entire process, from the beginning to picking up the car at the rental store, was very smooth. The customer service in Thailand was also excellent, with no additional demands.
This car rental experience had both surprises and minor inconveniences. Initially, a Volkswagen T-Roc was booked, but we ended up with a brand-new Nissan Qashqai, which was in excellent condition, had a clean interior, and offered a smooth driving experience. However, the Qashqai’s trunk space is indeed limited, making it less suitable for journeys with lots of luggage.
The rental company staff were enthusiastic and courteous; the pickup and drop-off process was seamless and efficient, with clear communication throughout. However, the cross-border fee of over 180 euros was unexpectedly high. At pickup, we were recommended to purchase a traffic violation insurance for around 68 euros—though slightly surprising, we accepted it for extra peace of mind. The trip is completed without receiving any violation notices so far, and we hope everything remains smooth. Overall, the experience was average, suitable for travelers who aren't picky about car models and value convenient service.
The process of renting and returning the car was somewhat slow, and two months after returning the car, I was charged for a traffic violation without any prior notice.
Pretty good, they didn’t try to upsell insurance. However, they didn’t check the car during the return process. Even though I clearly refueled the tank before returning, they still charged me over $10 for fuel. The amount wasn’t much, so I didn’t pursue it further. Still, it would be better if they conducted a clear inspection during the car return.
The staff speaks English and recommended an upgraded insurance package. After refusing once, they did not mention it again. They provided a brand-new Mercedes GLA200, which was very easy to drive and spacious. During the return process, the staff conducted an on-site inspection.
After repeatedly confirming with the staff about the deposit breakdown, we were told that part of it was an upgrade fee for the vehicle and the rest was just a standard deposit. However, after returning the car, no invoice was provided proactively. When we eventually obtained the invoice from the rental platform, we discovered that insurance had been forced upon us. We’ve never encountered such a situation when renting cars overseas, and we’re not sure if this is a problem specific to Spain or Europcar. Regardless, it feels like we were scammed. Everyone should be cautious—it's best to record videos and audio throughout the process as evidence. Otherwise, if the rental company denies it later, you won’t be able to defend your rights.
Overall good. They also recommended the full insurance from the rental company. They switched us to a DR car, which was in good condition but a bit large, making it quite challenging to navigate the underground parking in Madrid!
The vehicle experienced a breakdown, but it was promptly replaced. Additionally, the customer service from Zuzuche was very helpful, ensuring the issue was resolved smoothly. Overall, it's quite satisfactory.
The car rental company was overall acceptable. However, when returning the car, the staff specifically checked the underside of the car by hand and claimed there was a scratch, charging 70 euros for it. That area is typically not inspected during pickup, so it was hard to explain the reason. It felt like an unavoidable situation. Fortunately, I applied for insurance reimbursement, and QEEQ assisted promptly in handling it.
